Kenya's Odinga to unveil next move over vote dispute
Kenya's opposition leader Raila Odinga is to announce his strategy Tuesday for contesting his election loss, a decision with the potential to ease or exacerbate tensions in the country. The 72-year-old insists he is the rightful winner of a "stolen" election which took place on August 8 that handed victory to incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta. After the 2007 vote, Odinga's supporters took to the streets, and a resulting crackdown coupled with a wave of politically-motivated tribal violence left over 1,100 dead.
